We use Trend Micro products, which support the scanning of streams.

FWIW, after seeing this thread, I got nervous and looked at my virus
scanner and discovered that there is an option to scan ADS, which I
quickly enabled and re-scanned my machine. I am using CA eTrust
Antivirus... I'm not sure if other products support the same.

Thanks for all the help everybody, I have definately learned something
new today about the good old Windows systems and NTFS.  I'm just very
curious how it got on my computer to begin with, but on to the fix
action.  I was so mind boggled and bothered about this on my machine, I
almost (keyword) reloaded my entire machine, but as somebody mentioned
earlier about a rundll command and walla done.  I can't believe it was
that simple.  The funny thing about it, no anti viral tools or anti
trojan tools would work period just because I think as somebody already
stated it was using an ADS which apparently is a great way to hide new
trojans on any NTFS machine.  This forum is by far a great tool to learn
something new everyday and I definately have learned something.  Thank
you for all your input.
